I didn't see a picture in the listing showing the rib markings.
From the earliest Quality VH guns I've recorded, the mark in the barrel steel location is K f --

The barrels rib marked Titanic and Acme have a K in the barrel steel location near the front of the right barrel flat. I've recorded these K f and K markings into the 134xxx serial number range. Beginning in the 135xxx serial number range I begin seeing the V, T, A in a circle markings.
Would love to see the barrel flats of some more of these 1895 vintage Quality DH guns with Vulcan Steel barrels. |
I will have the gun in my hands by the end of next week will be glad to take all the photos you want
